Twins 9, Tigers 6

DETROIT — Jim Thome hit his 600th homer an inning after he hit No. 599 to help Minnesota outslug Detroit. Thome's achievement overshadowed a solo shot in the first inning by the Tigers' Delmon Young, the former Ray who had been traded from the Twins to Detroit earlier in the day. Alex Avila finished a homer shy of the cycle for the Tigers.
